- Answer these questions by making 10 atoms on Phet.
- Be sure to draw a sketch of 3 atoms that are stable & neutral.
- Make a data table of all of the ways you created a stable and neutral atom.
- Some things to consider:
- Mass, Net charge, No. of electrons in the inner and outer shells.
- No. of protons, electrons, neutrons
- Symbol and Name
